What is neutral buoyancy?
Divers like to be neutrally buoyant so that they do not sink or float. This can be difficult at first. We are not used to moving around underwater in zero gravity. Divers who master the highest levels of buoyancy performance stand out. You’ve seen them underwater. They glide effortlessly, use less air, and rise, fall, or glide, almost by thought alone. They interact gently with aquatic life and affect their environment minimally. The PADI Buoyancy course refines the basic skills you learned as a PADI Open Water Diver and takes them to the next level. Finally, with a few keys in hand and some refresher courses, it’s not that hard.
The fun part you will spend 2 dives underwater doing exercises and games to work on your buoyancy and move almost like a fish.
The more effort to make to master your bouancy, you will consume less air and your dives will be longer and always more incredible.
